What Corporate Mask Do You Wear?

Each human being is different. We are individuals, with own beliefs, own philosophy, and own personality. The diversity goes to billions (seven, actually, nowadays). However, as we grow up, we learn to hide our real feelings, save our opinion to ourselves. We learn that our own personality may not be the most attractive to show in certain circumstances. We learn to compromise to succeed.

Typically, if you join a large corporation, you will be expected to conform to certain behavior, rules and expectations. You will be watched and your attitude, posture, conduct and opinion will be evaluated. Your success will depend on not only your results but also how you are able to show your adherence to corporate expectations.

You build up and wear your mask, every day. You never take that shield off at the workplace. You are a different person. You cannot afford to show your weaknesses, you cannot afford to make bad jokes. You have your goals to achieve and you need to behave according to those objectives.
